 The Star of Courage (SC) is a bravery decoration awarded to Australians.[1] It is awarded for acts of conspicuous courage in circumstances of great peril. The SC was created on 14 February 1975.[4] The decoration recognises acts of bravery by members of the community.[4] They selflessly put themselves in jeopardy to protect the lives or property of others.[1] It is ranked second in the Australian civil bravery decorations in the Australian Honours System. Recipients of the Star of Courage are entitled to use the post-nominal letters "SC".[1]
